Created by such respected Conan authors like Cary Nord, Scott Allie, Gaute Godager, Tim Truman and Tone Rodriguez, the comic will officially debut at this summer’s Comic-Con, and will be printed in 400,000 copies. “Everyone at Funcom is in awe of the tremendous quality of the Conan comic books, and we were thrilled we could work with Dark Horse on a comic tying into our game,” said Gaute Godager, co-founder of Funcom and Game Director on [i]Age of Conan[/i]. “I feel certain the comic will deliver a brutal and entertaining experience, and I hope this will mark the start of additional co-developed projects in the years to come.”
